Sweet Tooth Illness
Japanese Name: 甘食い病 (tentative reading)
Reading: あまくいびょう (Amakui-byō, tentative)
English Name: Sweet Tooth Illness
Danger Level: ★★★★★
Description
[PARTIAL / RECONSTRUCTED FROM IMAGE]
A disease in which the patient's brain/head becomes abnormally associated with sweet foods. The illustration depicts the upper portion of the patient's head as a cross-section filled with what appear to be different kinds of sweets or sweet foods.
The visible English text appears to explain that, once the disease develops, the patient develops an overwhelming relationship with sweets. The condition seems to involve an inability to stop eating sweets, with the disease becoming dangerous if the patient cannot satisfy this craving.
The text also appears to indicate that the condition affects the patient's head/brain, rather than simply being ordinary overeating.
Symptoms
[PARTIAL / MODERATE CONFIDENCE]
An extreme or uncontrollable craving for sweet foods.
Affected individuals appear unable to stop consuming sweets.
The disease appears to cause pain or discomfort in the head.
The illustration shows the patient's head containing different colored food-like substances, strongly suggesting that sweets are accumulating or somehow replacing/affecting part of the brain.
The text appears to mention that the patient must continue consuming sweets to avoid worsening consequences.
Progression
[PARTIAL / RECONSTRUCTED]
The disease appears to become progressively dangerous when the patient's craving for sweets cannot be satisfied.
The text seems to describe a point at which the patient is unable to control the condition and may suffer increasingly severe effects if they stop consuming sweets. The final lines are too blurred to confidently establish the exact progression.
Cure / Treatment
[PARTIAL / LOW CONFIDENCE]
The image appears to mention medicine/treatment, but the wording is not sufficiently legible to determine whether a definite cure exists.
I would not record a specific cure in the archive until we have a higher-resolution copy of this page.
Additional Notes
The English title is clearly “Sweet tooth illness.”
The Japanese title appears to be 甘食い病, rather than 絶食病.
甘い (amai) means “sweet,” while 食い (kui) comes from 食う (“to eat”), so 甘食い病 would fit the English concept of a disease involving compulsive sweet-eating.
The ★★★★★ danger rating is clearly visible.
The “10+” marking beside the illustration belongs to the artwork/annotation and does not appear to be part of the disease name.
The illustration is particularly useful here: the patient's head is drawn as though it contains different types of food/sweets, reinforcing that the disease is specifically connected to sweets and the brain/head.
Best if you don't sign anything.
